The steady fighting of Prince Henry had at last met the danger from Wales, and Glyndwr, though still unconquered, saw district after district submit again to English rule.

From Wales the Prince returned to bring his will to bear on England itself.

It was through his strenuous opposition that the proposals of the Commons in 1410 were rejected by the Lords.

He gave at the same moment a more terrible proof of his loyalty to the Church in personally assisting at the burning of a layman, Thomas Badby, for a denial of transubstantiation.

The prayers of the sufferer were taken for a recantation, and the Prince ordered the fire to be plucked away.
